Double Cropping System

Increase the productivity of your farm with realistic U.S.-style double cropping.

This mod reworks the seasonal crop calendar, allowing you to harvest select winter crops and plant a second crop in the same field during the same growing season. Plan your crop rotations carefully to maximize the use of every acre while maintaining a realistic farming schedule.

Features:

• Realistic double-cropping crop calendar
• Revised planting and harvest windows for Wheat, Barley, Canola, Soybeans, Sorghum, and Corn
• Harvest winter crops in late spring and early summer before planting a second crop
• Soybeans and Sorghum are optimized for double-crop rotations following Wheat, Barley, or Canola
• Corn follows a traditional full-season spring planting schedule
• Built entirely on the existing crop system without adding new crop types

Crop Calendar:

Winter Crops

• Wheat – Harvest: June
• Barley – Harvest: May–June
• Canola – Harvest: May–June

Summer Crops

• Soybeans – Plant: June–July | Harvest: October–November
• Sorghum – Plant: June–July | Harvest: October–November
• Corn – Plant: April–May | Harvest: September–October

Whether you're looking for increased realism or simply want to get more out of every field, this Double Cropping System adds new strategic opportunities while preserving the familiar gameplay experience.

Notes:

• Supports Singleplayer and Multiplayer
• Compatible with existing savegames
• New savegames automatically begin in June to match the revised crop calendar
• No new crops or fill types are added
• Not compatible with other mods that change the seasonal crop calendar (e.g. Regional Crop Calendar) – both mods edit the same crop growth data and will conflict
